Abstract

Results of our recent highly accurate computations of the Coulomb two-center systems with the unit electrical charges X+X+eX^{+} X^{+} e^{-} and X+Y+eX^{+} Y^{+} e^{-} are discussed. In particular, we have determined (to very high accuracy) the total energies of the ground 1sσ1 s \sigma-states in the two-center adiabatic (or molecular) H2+_{2}^{+}, D2+_2^{+}, HD+^{+}, HT+^{+}, T2+^{+}_{2} and DT+^{+} ions. In these computations we applied the new masses of hydrogen isotopes, which have been measured in the recent high-energy experiments. We also derived (and tested) our accurate mass-interpolation formula for the total energies of the model two-center X+X+eX^{+} X^{+} e^{-} ions with very heavy masses of the point X+X^{+} particles (MXM_X \ge 100,000 mem_e). By using this formula we analyze the overall accuracy and validity of the adiabatic two-center approximation in application to the three-body atomic (or Coulomb) systems.
